The difference is that a Maoist takes ideas from the public and forms a coherent political program from them. It's a back and forth between the party and the masses, which results in a strong party that intelligently advocates for the people.
Matty is just talking about polls for culture war issues. It's chasing the political winds without putting any kind of thought into the project as a whole
The liberal mind doesn't see a project. The project is just american capitalism, and we've got it already! The end of history is here, we just need to tweak a few tiny issues here and there and there and there and there
Exactly, ever since the cold war ended with liberalism's complete victory, it's become a fundamentally conservative project, with no vision or project beyond maintaining the status quo. It literally has nothing to offer, and can't comprehend a future different than the 1990s.
Damn I was hoping Matty was so impressed by China's large population that he adopted Mao Zedong Thought with reichburger characteristics.
I was literally unable to conceptualize the idea as anything other than maoist thought as you've described it. What the fuck else could you ever want from a political party???
Other unwashed masses: the political parties should listen to our demands
Me, a very intelligent unwashed mass-particle: the political parties should not listen to my demands
Matty: the political parties should listen to only my demands, because I have all the best, most popular ideas, despite all the evidence to the contrary.
When he has 1 billion children they'll be popular.
Maoism is when I find intellectual ways to not directly say "We need to start hating trans people more," while ignoring calls to end genocide or institute free healthcare.
